It was a night to remember. This year’s annual gathering of the FPA Scholarship Fund Annual Awards Reception held at the elegant Roosevelt Hotel was indeed a night to remember! Onset by the warmer weather, spring in New York is always a special occasion with nightly festivities in most of the city’s hotels; commemorations, galas, university graduations and farewells.
This year’s reception was held at the midtown hidden gem, the Roosevelt Hotel where five scholarships were awarded to outstanding foreign students enrolled at graduate schools of journalism in the United States. Bill Keller, the New York Times Executive Editor was the keynote speaker addressing a gathering of over 200 guests consisting of FPA members, supporters of the Scholarship Fund, university deans and faculty members as well as two past winners.
